On ASA 5515 it shows it is in transparent mode and it has multi context.As in transparent ASA we know it has single Management IP address.This ASA is connected to one switch on two ports gi2 and gi3.One port carries vlan say 800 to the ASA.Other port carries vlan 500 from the ASA to switch But when i log onto ASA and do sh run it shows no VLan info there.
View 3 RepliesI have setup a 5515-X in transparent multi-mode and setup 5 security contexts with inside and outside ports, one admin and 4 others. The problem I have run into is setting up a management IP for each context. On one of my other transparent firewalls in production we were able to apply an IP to the security context (not interface) however the new firewall is running the latest software and this same functionality is not available. The only options for IP in context mode is IP AUDIT. So my next plan was to create sub-interfaces of the management interface and assign one to each context however the 5515-x does not allow sub-interfaces on the management interface. How I setup a management IP on each context?
Another interesting thing i read is that the managment IP assigned to a context (if i could figure out how to set it up), has to be in the same subnet as the data interface which if fine but it also says that the management interface should not be connected to the same switch as the data interface because of MAC address table update issues, meaning that i could not use a sub-interface of one of the already configured context ports.
I got an ASA 5510 system currently in single context mode, with CSC SSM installed. Single ISP uplink to internet, no VPN. And now customer would like add another ISP uplink, without invest another box for HA.What come across my mind is make the current box into multi context. There's some area i need to concern and also need yours perspective on it.
Question 1: For making the firewall into multi context, am i need to do it from scratch, issue mode multiple command. Then rebuilt the current production config into one of the context, then another context meant for the new IPS uplink, and one admin context?
Question 2: For CSC -SSM licensing requirement, model ASA 5510 with security plus license is able to support 2 context. So if i split my firewall like what i mention in question, what exactly number of context do i own (admin, context A, context B)?
Question 3: For CSC-SSM module in multi context mode, so the management port of CSC SSM must attach at admin context?
Question 4: After configured all the policy and traffic to scan, how exactly i should do in order apply this policy to the interface? Should i only enable at admin context, then firewall service-policy rules, and apply it global, OR should i also do the same action on context A and Context B?
Recently i have configured ASA5550 with 2 Contexts in Transparent mode. Traffic can pass through a single Firewall context but through both contexts it couldn't.

View 8 Replies View RelatedWe have a 5585X running in multi context mode, and we are getting log entries for scanning threat detection, such as:
%ASA-4-733100: [ Scanning] drop rate-1 exceeded. Current burst rate is 2 per second, max configured rate is 10; Current average rate is 5 per second, max configured rate is 5; Cumulative total count is 3116
Threat detection is not supported in multi context mode so I cannot tune the thresholds, is there any way that I can get rid of this outside of messing about with logging levels/message IDs?
I have two ASA 5510 in an Active/Active failover configuration; On the first ASA I have a license for five security contexts, on the second one I have the default two. On the pair I configured seven security contexts and everything works as expected; so far so good. Let's suppose now that the first ASA (the one with the license for 5 contexts) goes up in smoke; all the contexts migrate to the surviving firewall and life is still good. But what happens if, for some reason, I need to reboot the second ASA before the first one is repaired? My guess is that it will come up with just its own license for two contexts and that I will not be able to operate all my virtual firewalls.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHow do i measure the total throughput going via 5585-X.It has the firewall througput of 5Gbps. Looking at aggregate of all the interfaces traffic going through it seems about 4gbps is going through.
I use show traffic command and add up the trasmit and receive traffic on each live interface.Is that correct method and are there any more commands?
I have an ASA 5585 in transparent mode, multi-context. It seems that the option to configure a BVI in one of the traffic contexts isn't there. In other words, while I see the option to configure a bridge group interface in the admin context, no such option comes up in the traffic context.

I've been using packet-tracer for some time on and off with mixed results.
I'm running a multi context firewall with over 10 of the contexts sharing the same outside interface / network. All interfaces obviously have valid, unique IPs and also unique MAC addresses as mac-address auto is enabled in the system context.
This is an ASA 5550 running 8.3(2.10) interim so includes the fix for the well known packet-tracer classication failed bug.
So in theory, with firewall contexts on a shared interface the ASA should use the firewall MAC address to classify incoming traffic to the correct firewall and as far as I am aware, only fall back on using NAT to classify if the interface MACs are the same. In reality on my platform this doesn't seem to be happening and the classifier is using NAT to determine the destination context. I'm seeing this with live traffic (i.e. not generated by packet-tracer) in logs and can prove it by disabling certain NAT rules (there is some overlap with the IP addressing behind each firewall).
My question regarding packet tracer is this - in the above scenario with a shared outside interface, does packet tracer ALWAYS use NAT to determine the destination context? Or does packet tracer look up the MAC address of the ingress interface according to what context you are running packet tracer from? It appears that packet-tracer is using NAT in my case which could be just symptomatic of the potential bug I've described above rather than by design.

I would like to configure an ASA5512-X in firewall transparent mode, but I am having trouble getting ASDM to lauch when I do.
I have created a BVI interface with an IP address, and I hve enabled the mangement interface, but ASDM does not lauch when I enter the IP adress of the BVI I created.
Apprently you need to use the bridge-group command to assign an interfce to a bridge group. When I enter this command at the (config-if) prompt for Management 0/0, this command is not recognized.
What are the general steps for configuring the management interface to be able to launch ASDM in transparent mode?
I need to know if the 5512X IPS will work if the ASA is in transparent mode and/or any limitations.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just have 1 question. I am going to be getting U Verse installed at my house and have been having a hard time finding this in the documentation. The modem I am going to be getting is the 3800HGV-B. Over on the ATT forum users are stating that the modem needs every MAC of every potential IP. I thought about using it's DMZ Plus mode but I am getting a block of 8 IP's and it doesn't seem to play nice unless it see's 5 different MAC's. Right now I have my 5505 in routed mode so I don't believe it passes the MAC of the client's through. Will the ASA pass the MAC of the client's through to the modem with the appropriate ACL's applied?

View 4 Replies View Related have a Cisco ASA that I am trying to configure in a unique way, I want it to perform a variety of tasks;
VPN SSL
VPN Tunnels
Firewall Inside to Outside via versa
But the difficult task, is creating a DMZ with devices that are assigned fully routed IP addresses from our ISP directly, these are H323 and SIP devices that cannot use NAT, and must have a fully routed IP address assigned to them.
Obviously the problem I have with the Firewall in its default routed mode, is that it wont allow me to overlap IP addresses on the outside interface with the DMZ interface.
Could the Firewall be configured for Transparent mode between Outside and DMZ, but Routed mode between Outside and Inside?
Eth0/0: 10.0.0./24 (inside)

I've setup my Cisco ASA 5505 in transparent mode. I have a Cisco 1841 connecting to the ISP (DHCP client) and F0/0 for inside. The 1841 is the DHCP server. I have my ASA 5505 behind the 1841 in transparent mode (Vlan 1 for Outside and Vlan 1 for inside). The router config is good as when you connect a computer straight to the inside interface I get DHCP and can go to internet, no problems what so ever. But When you're trying to go through ASA isn't not working. if I add a ip any any statement to the access list it will work but having an "ip any any" in a access list is like having no firewall at all.

I have a cisco ASA5505 configured in transparent mode. This evening we attempted to plug a couple of new servers in but they simply didnt work, despite our test server working absolutely fine. The server IP's are all in a network object group (the same as the test server) and they're all using the same ACLs etc. I'm relatively new to configuring cisco equipment.
the only thing I can think of is a static route I had to add to get the managemet IP to work might be causing problems.route outside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 XX.XXX.132.1 1(IP addresses obfuscated- servers are all in the same range so assume XX.XXX is the same across all IP's).
I understand that in transparent mode an ASA5510 would only be able to have two interfaces, inside and outside. My question is could one of those logical interfaces be an LACP'd interface, made up of two physical interfaces. Topology below. I understand that the router and ASA5510 are SPOF here, so it is a bit of a moot point, but we're connecting already existing infrastructures together!
|-------–---| |---------|
| Switch 1 |------| |

|-------–---| | mode) | |----------|

I have a ASA 5510 that is connected to my ISP and the inside interface that is connected to my router. I have a /30 and need to determine if the configuration of x.x.x.121/30 which is my ISP and also the BVI address on the ASA. The inside router address is x.x.x.122/30 same subnet as my ISP will allow me to pass traffic. Management interface works using a different ip address but not able to get the traffic to pass traffic out to the internet thru the ASA
ISP-------->ASA-------->Router
Bottom Line is that I only have one usable address that is being used by the router and the ISP and ASA are using the other. Will this work?
On the ASA running the 8.4.4.1 code in transparent mode. Can I create sub interfaces in different vlans and attach them to different BVI groups?
switch---trunk---ASA---Trunk---switch
Gig0/1.1 vlan 100 bridge-gr1 Gig0/2.1 vlan 101 bridge-gr1
Gig0/1.2 vlan 200 bridge-gr2 Gig0/2.2 vlan 201 bridge-gr2
We already know that ASA 9.0 supports site-to-site VPN in multiple context mode. But remote access VPN isn't supported. Obviously, SSL-VPN is a very important feature for most multi-tenant deployment scenarios where each context acts as a border firewall towards the Internet for each tenant. The alternative to terminate all tenant remote-access VPNs in one context means that each tenant would have to be routable from the ASA, which of course isn't a reasonable requirement in most cases.
So, what I'd like to do is to deploy an ASA cluster, and provide remote access VPNs for each tenant, where the connectivity for each remote access group can be addressed with whatever IP address space, and that goes into it's own VRF in the back-end.
As far as I can tell, this isn't doable with the ASA, since multiple context mode prohibits the use of remote access VPN, and I can't think of any other work-around than either having individual firewalls running in single context mode for each tenant, or demand that all tenants are interoperable routing-wise and configure a separate ip address pool in a single context mode for each tenant.
Essentially, there's no good way to implement this with multiple virtual firewalls, using cisco firewalls?
